The Parable of the Good Samaritan

The Parable of the Good Samaritan, found in Luke 10:25-37, tells the story of a man who is robbed and left for dead on the roadside. Both a priest and a Levite pass by without helping, but a Samaritan stops to assist him. The Samaritan tends to the man’s wounds, takes him to an inn, and pays for his care. Jesus concludes the parable by highlighting the Samaritan’s compassion and instructs his listeners to emulate his example by showing mercy to others. This parable teaches the importance of kindness and compassion toward everyone, regardless of differences, emphasizing the universal value of caring for those in need.
